Check out the manifesto of the UK's new MP3 Party—a party devoted not to the protection and legalization of MP3 file trading, but to "protect and promote the interests and ideas of the mp3-generation worldwide".

1. It is a mathematical fact that very complex systems have certain limits after which any increase in complexity makes this system exponentially less efficient.

2.The above conclusion is true for any system: mathematical, molecular, mechanical, atomic, etc.

3. It should be universal also to other social systems: economical, political, legal etc.

4. Therefore those systems neede to be constantly, significantly and forcefully simplified in order to raise their level of functionality and efficiency.

The MP3 PARTY in the UK will make its topmost task to work for and support a significant simplification of the UK economic, political and legal system.

"ELECT US AND WE WILL DELETE ONE REGULATION PER DAY, ONE LAW PER WEEK, ONE SUBSIDY PER MONTH AND ONE TAX PER YEAR."

My first reaction was: If it walks like a libertarian and quacks like a libertarian, it's probably a libertarian. But they make some bizarre departures from libertarianism when you delve into the specifics of the manifesto: IQ tests for Parliamentary representatives, deportation of long-term prisoners to Russia, a royal title for anyone who can get 100 UK citizens to agree to be their subjects—it's libertarianism with a mad-scientist edge.

If this doesn't win the next Turner Prize, I shall be sorely disappointed.
